It's now the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
On this day, Jiang Yumeng appeared at Gu Fan's house again.
All the relatives who needed to be visited had been visited. For the last one, Gu Fan had promised Jiang Yumeng that he would take her to visit her grandfather.
Jiang Yumeng dressed up specially today.
Her long, black hair was loose, with a bow hair clip at the back. Her delicate face was like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting. Her nose was slightly upturned, her teeth were white and bright, and her red lips were upturned, forming a pretty smile that looked like a crescent moon. Her charming dimples rippled out, and her skin was as clear as snow, as if it had been soaked in milk.
Because she was going to meet Gu Fan's grandfather, Jiang Yumeng specially chose a classic dress that exuded a gentle and refined temperament, just like a well-bred lady.
Yes, actually she was born into a respectable family.
"Mengmeng looks so beautiful today!" Gu's mother praised without reservation.
He sighed inwardly, wondering what incredible luck his son had to find such a perfect girlfriend.
Jiang Yumeng's cheeks were flushed, as if she was a little embarrassed by the adults' praise.
On the other side, Gu Fan had also finished packing his things.
Jiang Yumeng also prepared a gift herself. Originally, Mr. and Mrs. Gu did not want her to spend so much money, but she insisted, so the couple let her have it.
This time, he was driving Gu Fan's family car, which was a small car worth over 100,000 yuan.
Mr. Gu was driving, Mrs. Gu was in the passenger seat, and Gu Fan and Jiang Yumeng were in the back.
The two were inseparable, their fingers intertwined, whispering sweet nothings to each other.
Are you nervous?
Gu Fan looked at her with a smile on his lips.
Jiang Yumeng nodded gently: "A little."
In her imagination, Gu Fan's grandfather was a calligraphy master, so he should be a rather rigid and serious person. Such masters often have rather eccentric personalities, so it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.
Gu Fan smiled and said, "Relax. My grandfather is indeed a bit old-fashioned, but he's a really good person, especially towards you."
Jiang Yumeng was a little confused: "Why do you say that?"
They haven't met yet.
Gu Fan smiled and said, "Because my grandfather has been looking forward to me bringing my granddaughter-in-law back to see him for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yumeng's face immediately flushed red, but her brows were filled with joy.
Before long, the car arrived at a small town in the countryside.
Gu Fan's family moved to the county town, but his grandfather didn't want to stay in the city and insisted on living in the countryside.
However, although the economy of Milai Town is not very good, its scenery is first-class.
With mountains, water, and people, it's a great place to retire.
Because he had informed his grandfather beforehand, he knew that Gu Fan's family would be coming.
In front of a retro-style building stood an old man with white hair but clear eyes. His body was not hunched but rather straight and strong, with his hands behind his back, quietly waiting for something.
Only when a car horn sounded did a smile finally appear on the old man's stern face.
The car stopped by the door, and Mr. and Mrs. Gu quickly got out.
"Dad, why are you waiting here?" Mr. Gu hurriedly went to greet him.
Gu Zhizhang glanced at his son and said indifferently, "Isn't it because I'm waiting for you? You hardly ever come here more than a few times a year."
Mr. Gu smiled wryly and said, "I was just busy with work."
"grandfather!"
Gu Fan got out of the car and called out in this direction.
Grandpa Gu immediately laughed: "Xiao Fan is here!"
Father Gu: ...
Well, I'm not even as high-status as my grandson. It's true what they say, grandparents love their grandchildren more!
At this moment, Gu Fan walked to the other side of the car, opened the car door, and blocked the top of the door with his hand.
Immediately afterwards, a girl who looked like a porcelain doll stepped gracefully out of the car.
Upon seeing Jiang Yumeng, Grandpa Gu's eyes lit up: "What a pretty young girl, who is she?"
Before the Gu couple could explain, they saw Gu Fan leading a somewhat reserved Jiang Yumeng over.
Now Old Master Gu understood.
They've already held hands, do I need to explain?
He was immediately pleasantly surprised.
Gu Fan smiled and led Jiang Yumeng by the hand to his grandfather, introducing her: "Grandpa, this is Jiang Yumeng, my girlfriend."
Then he introduced Jiang Yumeng, saying, "This is Grandpa. Just call him Grandpa."
Jiang Yumeng blushed and quickly said, "Hello Grandpa, I'm Gu Fan's girlfriend. You can just call me Mengmeng."
Grandpa Gu nodded kindly: "Oh, good, Mengmeng, right? Great, my boy has struck gold."
The old man's attitude was quite clear; he was obviously very satisfied with Jiang Yumeng.
And just as Gu Fan said, Grandpa Gu is indeed a very good person.
The father and son moved their belongings in, while the old man chatted with Gu's mother and Jiang Yumeng.
"Oh, right, Grandpa, this is my first time here, so I brought you a gift." Jiang Yumeng suddenly said.
Grandpa Gu chuckled and said, "You're here, no need for gifts."
For him, who has one foot in the grave, he has long since become indifferent to everything. As long as young people are happy, that is the greatest comfort for an old man.
Jiang Yumeng then presented her own gift.
"Grandpa, Gu Fan told me you like calligraphy. This is a set of calligraphy tools, including fine Xuan paper, a brush, an inkstone, and ink."
Grandpa Gu's eyes lit up.
Well, besides hoping for a large family, he does quite like these things.
"And this, these are prayer beads made of agarwood, wearing them is good for calming the mind..."
"And this one, this is an authentic work by Bai Anshi, a calligraphy master from the Republican era..."
